I want to get a photo printed up to rougly 2m x 1.3m for our lounge. Could be canvas or wallpaper type that could be pasted on the wall. Can't seem to find any that really go big enough. Any ideas?

Thanks

These guys offer bigger than that: www.print2canvas.co.uk/prices.htm

Not cheap (and not exactly the size you want) though

How arty you feeling?
You could always borrow a projector (slide or PC type) and set it up pointing up at the wall, then trace with a pencil and paint by numbers...

THis is a technique used for stage sets etc, and can be very effective if you, or someone you know is handy with a brush. Alternatively I'd look if theres a small company doing exhibition display material near you - typically they'll knock something out that size on a large format injet for far lees than a canvas print. Resolution will be lower though - normally 75ppi rather than 200+ppi for a normal photo print. Won't mater at that size though.

These www.wantitprintit.com/ do prints upto 2440 x 1220 mm. I have never used them so can't comment on quality.

Thanks ya'll.

Not that brave Duncan!

James, I've taken the plunge at that price for a 2440 x 1220, I'll let you know how it goes!
